AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

After intravenous and oral administration of radioactive aldosterone to normal subjects, 7.3 ± 0.4 (SE) and 5.4 ± 0.5 (SE)%, respectively, of the dose was recovered from a 48-hour collection of urine as aldosterone released by mild acid hydrolysis (from aldosterone 18-glucuronide), and 35 ± 5 (SE) and 39 ± 4 (SE)%, respectively, was recovered as tetrahydroaldosterone after incubation with β-glucuronidase.
